Lucky you. I've been stuck in 'All Electric' places for... hmm... 20 years now? Not sure I CAN cook anything on a 'real' stove without burning it anymore.

Yup. On the 'lee' side of the range (think the Mission district, the 49'ers ballpark, or Alameda across the bay) it can be 80 f. Get up to the Golden Gate itself... well... your lucky if it hits 50f and less than 15mph windspeed.
